I don't know why foreigners and international bloggers go to places like 6 Ballygunge Place, Bhojohori Manna, Oh Calcutta to explore Bengali cuisine. They're just overhyped, overpriced and no where near to the authentic taste of Bengal.
Where the true Bengali cuisine is present in a Pice hotel like Young Bengal. Bengali food is meant to be not very spicy, healthy and flavorful at the same time. Young Bengal is serving just that from last 93 years.
I took a thali with Rice, Sukto, Chicken, Aamer Chatni and the taste was just as expected. Fresh and truly home made food. Prices are very affordable. If you like to explore then ambiance here represents the nostalgia of old Calcutta that you'll fall in love with.
Till the time Kolkata food vloggers are busy at Nandini's hotel, if you really love Bengali food then you should give them a try.
typical bengali pice hotel with good food at reasonable rate. fish preparations are very good and service is quite prompt. though options are less so better to call for the menu of the day before coming.
It is a bit difficult to locate. Road is under a flyover. However it is very old and continuing since British era. Historically the price was charged for all items by Paisa or pice. So the name is pice hotel. Food is served on a banana leaf. Items are not costly. We took rice, dal, pabda machher jhal, chanchra, alu bhaja, chicken curry and amer chatney. All these dishes are authentic Bengali dishes and tasty also. The hotel serves only authentic Bengali cuisine. Mutton was over . Also no sweet was available. Every item was very tasty and price is affordable. Quality of rice was very good. We thoroughly enjoyed our food. Really enjoyable experience.
